Safety First! – Gameplay Trailer

I will be honest screenshots will not do this game any justice. You have to use both sticks to maneuver your character over to the broken wire. You then have a limited supply of yellow liquid, which is used to fix the wire. Controls take a lot of getting used to, especially in the later levels where big jumps are needed.

Its pure physics-based, with the left stick controlling your left foot and the right stick controlling the right foot. But don’t move your legs too wide, or you will rip in half and blood will be everywhere.

Safety First! has 69 levels to complete with an ever-increasing level of difficulty. There is then an Advanced Mode, where you are unable to lift both legs at the same time. There is then a 7 level campaign, where there is nop gravity at all. While this may sound easy Space was the hardest part of the entire game.

After 10 levels you have the option to unlock PEP mode, which presses the fast-forward button. DRNK mode is unlocked after 20 levels, and the music changes to a more rock vibe.

This is a game which you will play for 3 levels and then not pick up again. But then you will and play another 5 levels and it’s like a drug. You will try to stay away, but you’ll always come back. Finally check out our other gaming reviews.
